Garden display during Bo'ness Fair

Raising awareness for Vasculitis and for my petition to change NHS Forth Valley's policy on out of area referrals

With Bo'ness Fair only a few days away, and with the intention to do a Outside the Box tour of Forth Valley, I have created a basic garden display to help get this kickstarted.

I will be raising awareness for Vasculitis and also for my petition to change NHS Forth Valley policies on Out of Area Referrals and on how specialists (with no expertise in treating Vasculitis) are assigned to Vasculitis patients.



The garden display shows a person chained to a heavy block, highlighting that NHS Forth Valley have to give their permission before I can be allowed to travel to an adjacent health board for treatment. No travel without NHS Forth Valley's permission.

The pine box is going to be used for the Outside the Box Tour of Forth Valley. It is portable and can be dragged around. It catches your attention and is useful in holding the banner. If I can, I hope to tour some local towns, speaking to people that want to find out what this is all about.

I hope that it will help to increase support for my petition and will ultimately persuade NHS Forth Valley to start talking to me about the policy changes that are needed.
